(1) For the DDR3 device BGA pad size, see the DDR3 device manufacturer documentation.
(2) Ground reference layers are preferred over power reference layers. Be sure to include bypass capacitors to accommodate reference
layer return current as the trace routes switch routing layers.
(3) No traces should cross reference plane cuts within the DDR3 routing region. High-speed signal traces crossing reference plane cuts
create large return current paths which can lead to excessive crosstalk and EMI radiation.
(4) Reference planes are to be directly adjacent to the signal plane to minimize the size of the return current loop.
(5) An 18-mil pad assumes Via Channel is the most economical BGA escape. A 20-mil pad may be used if additional layers are available
for power routing. An 18-mil pad is required for minimum layer count escape.
(6) Zo is the nominal singled-ended impedance selected for the PCB.
(7) This parameter specifies the AC characteristic impedance tolerance for each segment of a PCB signal trace relative to the chosen Zo
defined by the single-ended impedance parameter.
(8) Tighter impedance control is required to ensure flight time skew is minimal.
